due to circumstances right now i cannot leave permanently the watchtower, however i need honest advice of what to say when elders question me how come im not meeting the group out for door to door & going out in " field service"... what would be proper responses not to draw suspicions since i'm aware of ttatt.. .any serious advice please...
I'd just be honest to a point about it. "I have some doubts myself and feel like a fraud telling others about things i'm not sure of myself",
if pressed on the doubts, just fob them off that you are trying to resolve them yourself and dont need any help with it thanks...
Having doubts isnt a crime, spreading them around to others IS (to them). There is a big difference in dub land between those two.
every situation is different as it depends on how gung ho your elders are.
1) he views devotees with disgust; because they use god as a means to fulfillment of their materialistic ends, and they constantly pester him with request to violate his own laws (principle of action and consequence).
hence devotees are materialistic in its true sense.
they even interpolate things into scriptures to suit their convenienceas confirmed by prophet jeremiah himself (jeremiah 7:22; 8:8).
A whole team of them actually, several new accounts here who clap and cheer are obviously connected too..
Please kindly piss off and leave those hurting and recovering from cult abuse alone, it shows a crass lack of empathy to show up here time and time again to peddle your stupid cult.
science can explain how of things, but it cannot explain why of certain things (for example, why did life arise from non-life and evolved from simpler creatures to more complex life forms only to die and disappear?
) so are the conflicted religions whose chief concern is in safeguarding each ones separate identity..
next option is to look for pearls among the stonesusing power of our own reason.
Carl Sagan WAS strictly scientific. The quote was 100% out of context and purposely misleading. If anyone has any doubt of that, they need to read "Demon Haunted World"
Ta da,..

i just had two female jws visit, one in their 30s and the other about 20. .
they invited me to their convention to learn about jesus, they said it is three days long but i don't need to attend every day and she highlighted one session at 11.15am where i could learn about jesus.. i said to her that i wouldn't be interested in attending the convention because i believed what a man called rutherford said about religion being a snare and a racket.
they wanted to know who this rutherford guy was and after explaining knew who i was talking about.
You will be flagged up as apostate in their in car discussion and they will not do any research at all.
